Plavix (clopidogrel) medication-- is it still safe to drink green tea if you are taking this medication?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not a good idea: Green tea inhibits platelet aggregation & adhesion; the combination with Plavix (clopidogrel) may increase the risk of bleeding. Ask your doc if a lower dose of Plavix (clopidogrel) might be sage with green tea. Or choose a tea without anticoagulant effects.
